BISCUIT TIN 2024
BISCUIT TIN 2024
After a short hiatus in 2023 our Annual Moving Image Festival is BACK !!
Delving back into the biscuit tin to pull out all the threads, 5ps and knick-knacks that have been stashed away we’ve uncovered some absolute gems.
Join us for a magical weekend revelling with the moving image
2pm-6pm -7th December Neighbourhood Watch Moving Image Crit (in person @EMBASSY)
This year as well as an evening screening we have invited artists Aaron Dawson-Riley and Liberty Hodes to host NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH. Neighbourhood watch is a regular screening environment for video makers, originally hosted at the Newbridge Project. It provides a space for divergent video-making practices, outside of our current channels of media distribution.
Anyone is welcome to share work of up to 10 minutes or come, view and offer feedback. for more info see the link below!
7pm-9pm- 8th DECEMBER- Biscuit Tin 2024 selection screening (in person @EMBASSY+ online)
Join us to watch 11 different moving image works from emerging artists around Scotland and beyond!
Tickets for the screening on the 8th are free but you must book a ticket
Access:
All films online and in-person will be closed captioned (thank u holly) and content warnings will be presented before each film if they include content which we think people may find upsetting.
The event will have a range of seating options including a variety of different chairs and some beanbags. You can email us beforehand at embassygalleryedinburgh@gmail.com or speak to a member of the committee upon arrival if you require a specific type of seat as we can make sure one is reserved for you.
Any other access questions, please don’t hesitate to contact the committee ( embassygalleryedinburgh@gmail.com), we wish to make this event accessible to all members of our community & will be happy to help to try and make the space comfortable for you and provide more information if you wish.

There will be copious amounts of tea and of course, biscuits! 🍪🕯
About the Festival:
Biscuit Tin was initially brought to EMBASSY by ex-committee member Maria Wrang-Rasmussen and set up to be a screening event of films not yet shown in a physical space- missed opportunities, something forgotten, shoved aside or disregarded works that were waiting to be revived. This year will be the 3rd edition of Biscuit Tin.
Programme for 8th December: Coming very very soon!!
Biscuit Tin + EMBASSY are supported by Creative Scotland
